- NOTE: I really enjoyed this route, perhaps more than I expected precisely because of what was most uncomfortable for us: a tremendous downpour that soaked us to the bone. But even in that situation, the trail was very comfortable and …

Great tour from Bühlertal to the Gertelbach waterfalls and the Wiedenfelsen. Despite the heavy rain that lasted for a long time yesterday, the tour was very easy to walk on. Unfortunately, the fog was hanging in the mountains at the Wiedenfelsen and we unfortunately had no view.

Sunday, summer solstice. The perfect day for a walk through a beautiful, cool valley. My choice falls on the Gertelbach Waterfalls, which I've passed once or twice on my hikes. This time, the focus is on spending time together, experiencing nature, and taking photos.

A wonderful hiking trail, pure nature! You should wear proper hiking boots that go above your ankles and be prepared to take on some difficult trails. I personally find the hike very beautiful.

Instead of roasting at the quarry pond, we torment the calves. 😂
At 29 degrees we fled into the forest.
We arrived via Bühlertal and drove directly to parking lot P2.
What can I say, I'm thrilled. The first part of the route from the parking lot was unspectacular. But shortly afterwards it was a little adventure for us to …
